Are you planning to just sit at home and watch the NCAA men's basketball title game on Monday night? How about joining SportingNews.com, Philo and a certain Boston Celtics center by the name of Shaquille O'Neal for a live chat during the game?

That's right. On Monday, from tip-off to when the nets come down, Shaq will chat with SportingNews.com's users in a special event brought to you by Philo, a social television platform that allows users to "check in" when watching programming, chat with their friends, and even makes the experience competitive with badges and points.

If chatting with Shaq isn't enough of a draw, we've got prizes for a few lucky users who "check in" during the title game.

-- We're giving away 10 copies of "Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12: The Masters" for the PlayStation 3 to users whose comments are selected by Shaq as his favorites of the night.

While you get ready for the big game, be sure to visit PlayPhilo.com to set up your account so you can check in on Monday and be eligible for prizes. (Philo is also available in the App Store and on Android devices.) And while you're there, start checking in and earning points and badges to get ahead of your friends. We'll see you back here with Shaq on Monday night.
